https://www.out.com/comedy/joe-rogan-antigay-netflix-special Joe Rogan is spewing some seriously problematic — and downright unfunny — antigay jokes in his new Netflix comedy special Burn the Boats. In the new special, which is of course on Netflix, the same streamer that gives Dave Chapelle repeated platforms to go on transphobic rants, Rogan blustered on about vaccines, trans people (of course), and even gay men. Early in the special, Rogan talked about COVID-19 pandemic and how the vaccine for the illness changed the way he views the world. "Before COVID, I would have to

A new bill introduced in the Missouri House would force teachers to register as sex offenders if they use the names and pronouns of transgender children or otherwise support them and their identity. HB2885, filed on Thursday, February 29 by state Representative Jamie Gragg (R-Ozark), would make it a Class E felony for teachers or school counselors to aid the “social transition” of a child — meaning that a teacher "provides support, regardless of whether the support is material, information, or other resources to a child regarding social transition."

“Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling says she would “happily” do two years in prison over her anti-trans views.

HAMTRAMCK, Mich. — This city of 28,000 was once so Polish it was dubbed “Little Warsaw.” But in recent decades, an influx of immigrants gave Hamtramck new character.

Many residents in this tiny enclave just north of downtown Detroit saw these c
